Theory and Practice in the Implementation of Illusionistic Ceiling Painting at Palazzo Moroni in Bergamo
No full textThe construction of Palazzo Moroni was commissioned by Francesco in the occasion of his marriage with Lucrezia Roncalli in 1631. The work lasted thirty years, from 1636 to 1666, and was executed by the master Battista della Giovanna. In 1649, Moroni entrusted to the painter Giacomo Barbelli from Crema (1604-1656) the decoration of some rooms. This is evidenced in the inscription written in the corners of the Gerusalemme Liberata hall: IO.s JACO.s BARBERI.s CREMEN.s INVEN.r PINGEB.t ANNO MDCLII. On the first floor of the building, you will find
some amazing illusionistic artifices that impress with their high scenic quality. The illusions show architectural scenes that are able to expand the real space and to open trompe l'oeil ceilings using decorative elements. These examples of excellent workmanship are so specific that deserve to be studied in a national PRIN research on the perspective issues. So, what is the hidden system used by these painters called "quadraturisti"? This work reveals, between hypothesis and validations, the operating stratagems to acquire and describe these works and the perspective reasoning used by the artist to give the illusion of having the sky in a room. Varied technical equipment has been tested to perform the survey. The 3D laser distancemeter measurements have been "dressed" with digital photographs edited with a software that calculates the intersection of optical lines from each photo and projected in three-dimensional space the generated points. The collected data allowed reconstructing the architectural structures with accuracy. The analysis of the digital model has revealed that the unit of measure used was the Bergamasco
Foot (0.437767 m). The Gerusalemme Liberata hall measures 32x17 feet. The Golden Age hall measures 16x16 feet. The stairwell measures 34x12,5 feet.
The investigation on the ceiling perspective identifies in the first room four vanishing points instead that one. The comparison with the figure 100 in Andrea Pozzo’s Treaty about the “modo di far la graticola nelle volte” (way to do the grids for painted vaults), has led to the hipotesys that Barbelli uses the same method. Pozzo explains that for flat artworks two grids are enough: one on the drawing, the other in the entire work. However, Pozzo himself criticizes the multiple vanishing points solution in a response notice to a raised objection. He states that "not everyone agrees that in a great perspective you give just one point to the whole work" and he replies that to fully enjoy and have an optimal view of the whole work, it is more advisable to have a single point of view. Otherwise, you should look at the drawing from different points in the room, to perceive the whole work. The research’s goal is the geometric analysis and the restitution of the represented architecture. The purpose is to understand the practice for the construction of these kinds of architectonical paintings called “quadrature” and to highlight the peculiarities of the school established in Ducato di Milano. Padre Pozzo himself studied here, before he left the city in order to definitively settle in Rome (1681). The research analyzes a series of similar perspectives, with the aim to identify the elements that explain the theoretical training of Pozzo and his master
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
